I Am The Wolf of the Steppes (Free verse) by versus_u
So how has this bourgeois class saved you
And how has it summoned your debts to disappear
Beneath daguerreotypes of emotional degradation
Of your youth?
How have you been coping
Since I left you naked in the dark
Aimlessly wandering among the blankets
That laugh at your sorry statuesque?
Will you be willing to embrace me once more
Even if hate dictates haste
In maneuvering words
To vanish ideas that I so long to hear?
Or will you be just as scared as before
To look into my eyes
And utter lines of admiration
Of how I frantically let go of death?
You are no less a wolf than I
And forever will you suffer
Only to shed into dregs all over again
In this life of sanguineous solitude.
